GUTTED Daniel Majstorovic is out of Euro 2012 and his Celtic future is hanging in the balance after he was rocked by an injury blow on international duty.

The giant stopper ruptured the cruciate ligament in his left knee during a training session yesterday but he insists his career is not over.

Majstorovic, 34, was crocked following a collision with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Anders Svensson ahead of tonight’s friendly with Croatia in Zagreb.

And after being rocked by the news that he needs an operation, the Parkhead defender vowed to cheer on his country this summer in Poland and Ukraine.

Majstorovic will also be forced to sit out the remainder of Celtic’s Treble bid, having only recently returned from an eight-week lay off with a broken cheekbone.

And with the former AEK Athens man’s contract set to expire in the summer he could now have kicked his final ball for the club – a disappointing end to his two-year stay in Scotland.

Sweden are due to face England, France and co-hosts Ukraine in a glamour Euro 2012 group and Majstorovic said: “I have been looking forward to the European Championships for a long time and it hurts, of course, to realise that I will miss it.

“But I will do everything to get back as soon as possible, I feel I still have much to offer on the football field and do not want to give up my career just for this.

“I have great respect for what is a serious situation and it will require a hard job to come back.

“Right now I just want to make sure I get proper treatment as soon as possible and then start the job of rehabilitation.

“I will follow the team closely and wish them all the luck in the European Championships.”

Sweden boss Erik Harmen also spoke of the player’s injury.

He said: “It was one of the saddest training sessions in my career. It is painful for us and especially Daniel.

“This hurts for all of us but above all for Daniel. This means of course he will be away for a long time.

“It was an awful moment and nobody can be blamed for what happened. It’s so sad for Daniel and I just hope he can recover from this.”

Majstorovic spoke of his excitement at the prospect of a new Celtic deal at the end of the season but there was nothing on the table before his crock shock.

A statement on the SPL leaders’ website read: “Celtic’s medical team will be in close liaison with the Swedish FA medical team to ensure that Daniel receives the best of care. Unfortunately he will be out long-term.

“It is another injury blow to the defender, who missed eight weeks of action earlier this season after fracturing his cheekbone. Everyone at Celtic wishes Daniel a speedy recovery from injury.”
